Personally, I'm already content with the current stream of, well, content on Lemmy right now, at least for doomscrolling.
There's a lack of niche communities right now of course, but I made one that I missed, and I'm sure other people will do the same as the user base increases.
Make any communities you miss guys!
Imagine the sheer awkwardness of the conversations in later chapters, specially with Kana, Akane, and the Prez if Aqua accepts. Would be hilariously entertaining to see how they'd justify this.
But yeah he's definitely turning her down immediately. We all know the only valid ships in this show are Aqua x Therapy and Ruby x Therapy
That's another thing. People need to stop recommending the massive servers and recommend smaller ones like vlemmy.net, lemmy.one or lemm.ee instead, at lest until lemmy'soptimized for user counts of this scale. Those servers have also been upgraded for the surge of users after all, and everything's connected anyway.
In fact, I think lemmy clients should go as far as to assign new users randomly to good general servers like these upon registration so they don't even have to know about instances; would make the onboarding much better
Aside from what Coelacanth said, those instances are no more likely to shut down than lemmy.world (I can't recall a Lemmy instance that's not for personal use ever shutting down); they've functioned just fine for years and have even been upgraded for the surge of users too
That's why it's important to make sure they're good general instances that aren't defederating everything else. Beehaw seems to be an exception in this regard.
Beehaw's essentially walling itself off from other instances, and I think the vast majority of users would rather stay on the other instances' side rather than one that seems to be staying small on purpose.
Instance migration is already a highly requested feature, and is a thing in Mastodon already. That will fix most remaining concern about being locked out of communities when implemented.
I feel the massive onboarding advantage of users not requiring instance knowledge by doing this vastly outweighs the few users who might not find some communities they like, most of which have alternatives in other instances anyway. And they could always just make another account until instance migration is in lemmy.
Atm this is a quite hacky way to do it. Wish it didn't hide your own posts, and only affected active and hot for like a day after seeing the post
The one complaint I have is the lack of a native app; it doesn't run as smoothly as the other Lemmy clients do on my phone.
It's already amazing on my tablet though!
Multiple issues have been opened on the github for grouping communities/instances. That should fix it when it's applied.
Wait for Sync for Lemmy and Memmy (Apollo inspired) to come out in a few weeks and this'll already be a better experience than reddit on mobile
And thus the new home for me.
Goodbye reddit I guess 🫡
I'm seeing alot of artists, specially japanese, moving to Misskey too, which is also federated.
That's great for me cuz I mainly used Twitter to follow artists.
